mingw: do not call xutftowcs_path in mingw_mktemp

The `xutftowcs_path` function canonicalizes absolute paths using GetFullPathNameW. This canonicalization may change the length of the string (e.g. getting rid of \.\), which breaks callers that pass the template string in a strbuf and expect the length of the string to remain the same. In my particular case, the tmp-objdir code is passing a strbuf to mkdtemp and is breaking since the strbuf.len is no longer synchronized with strlen(strbuf.buf). Signed-off-by: Neeraj K.
